My roses from last year died, but they were in containers. I ordered three new plants over the winter, and they are blooming now. We just have to get the Kubota fixed so that we can make some raised beds in which to plant them. I’d like to plant them around the eastward side of the screen house, because it’s much more open there, so it gets more sun.
We have a bed of roses on the eastern side along our front patio. Before we put the guttering up, a lot of water from the roof flowed over the patio and into the bed. They might just be getting too little water? Lots of winter kill I’ve read happens due to lack of water.
